Re: [council] Potential Topics / Action Items for Wrap-up



Very good proposal, David.

Documentation in advance is essential.

I'd be happy with some compromise here - a brief summary presentation would indeed be useful for a public meeting in many cases, and focus everyones attention on the most important issues with any given report.

But absolutely, please, could we have all reports accompanied by some written documentation, and not feel that all the details need to be in a verbal presentation. If such written documentation was also available for download by interested observers, that would be fine. I frequently feel after receiving a verbal report that I would be better informed if I'd been able to spend the equivalent time reading about the issue.

Regards

David

Good point, Wendy. However I'd like to take into consideration that the weekend sessions are GNSo sessions (not council only) including newcomers. We can't really expect all having dived into the reports in advance. Personally I appreciate a brief refreshment of my memory shortly before the discussion starts.

Thanks

I'd like to suggest an update to our working methods: Let's get reports
or slide-decks in writing in advance and begin at least the weekend
sessions by taking the reports as read, starting directly with
questions. It felt as though we spent a long time hearing summaries of
reports rather than discussing issues with or consensus around them. I
know I for one process information more thoroughly and more quickly in
writing.

To aid that, can we ask for a set of links in one place (or even better,
a single page HTML or PDF) containing everything we're expected to read,
for advance printing/downloading.

Thanks,
--Wendy
